Hi everyone,
Jerusalem: Israeli Grandmaster Boris Gelfand - the challenger to take on the might of World Chess Champion Viswanathan Anand in Moscow - has one very avid fan! His wife Maya says she is confident about her husband's triumph against his Indian opponent. "I disregard other people's opinions. I know he can win," Maya said after Gelfand lost to Anand to level the scores at 4-4 in the 12-games encounter.
Boris is focused, he is very tense, he is gathering all his strength. He has no time for excitement, it is time to work," she told news portal 'Ynet'. Meanwhile, a lot of Israelis have gathered in Moscow to show their support Gelfand, even though chess is not among the popular sports in the country.

It's getting to be an exciting match. I hop both players win another gam each. No more boring draws!
